On December 4, FCA US LLC announced that it has converted its owned-truck fleet of 179 Detroit-based parts-haulers to run on compressed natural gas (CNG) rather than traditional diesel. This transition resulted in:
• 27% cleaner emissions, or about 16,000 fewer tons of CO2 released into the air
• 35% savings compared to diesel costs
• $40 million investment in the FCA US Detroit transport facility
